Work vent... Sorry

[Cutiebolic]

Hey guys,

Sorry to me-vent, but I need to let off some steam before I lay the hurt on someone.

I gave my notice at work a few weeks ago, effective 1/1. I was trying to be nice because I didn't want to leave my colleagues high and dry, especially heading into the holidays.

Well, since then (and I suppose not surprisingly) I've been scheduled for crappy shifts, left out of the lunch order, etc. Annoying little things that kind of add up.

I spoke to my immediate supervisor about my scheduling without any luck. In fact, he made a not so thinly veiled threat that if I rocked the boat too much it might impede my contract signing with my next place (ie they would give me a poor evaluation).

I have worked hard for this place and am generally easy to get along with and, I'd like to think, pretty fun to work with.

I don't want to shoot myself in the foot but I'm seriously considering walking away with 3 weeks left.

Thoughts?

Don't do that. Then they will have won. It's only a few weeks. Stock it out and be the bigger person. If that doesn't work, pee in his coffee.

I'm generally not too passive aggressive but if there were ever a time....

 

[cap gunz]

Lol. I'm not usually, either. I want the victim to know it was me who got them.

Cutie, in my experience unless you work for a very small business announcing that you're leaving too far in advance causes problems even though you were trying to be considerate. I would lay low now until your time is up. Sorry to hear that they are being shitty, that sucks.

You are thinking like a Canadian. You need to start thinking like a Mexican. Stick it out for the next 3 weeks, just don't get any work done and don't waste any time training you replacements. We call it "short timer syndrome" here in the US.
